The transition from being a kid to an adult is rough one, especially when it seems you have the weight of the world on your shoulders. So here's so advice from me to you, on how to keep your head on straight while taking on the world.

1. You Need to Set Difficult Goals

College is the time in your life to branch out, push yourself, and grow in the direction you're called. Set hard goals and push yourself to grow, because you can do more than you think. Especially when you have free access to a stuff like library databases.

2. You Need to Find Your Real Friends

Finding your real friends can mean letting others go, and that's okay. As you reach goal after goal you're going to grow faster than other people in your life, and there's nothing wrong with that. You also aren't going to have time or emotional capacity for drama, so find your people.

3. You Need to Ask for Help

Two heads are always better than one. It doesn't matter if you're trying to organize a research paper, trying to write a business plan, or starting a non-profit -- someone else's perspective can make all the difference. Especially with proofreading.

4. You Need to Have Down Time

Binge watching Netflix one night of the week is totally acceptable -- just not every night of the week. You need to laugh and spend time with your friends too because they're in the exact same boat as you and can probably sympathize.

5. You Need to Get in a Routine

You are your habits. If you want to be successful, you need to mimic the habits of your role models. You need to eat healthy to keep your energy level up. You need to develop a regular sleep schedule. And you definitely need to get in a workout routine.

6. You Need to Listen to Your Gut

Your gut knows when things are not worth your time or just not going right, so listen to it. With only 24 hours in a day, you don't have time to waste on something that you're not passionate about.

7. You Need to Relax

You are your own worst critic. Relax a little bit, breathe, and don't stress out so much. You are trying to take on the world, find your place in the world, and survive in today's world; That's not easy, so lighten up.

8. You Need to Plan

'Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance.' Schedule time to do homework, time to work, time to workout, and time to do whatever you feel like. Figure out your budget and what you can spend money on. Give yourself a game plan.

9. You Need to Reward Yourself

Congratulations on good midterm grades! Take any excuse you can to celebrate the wonderful things in life. You have the world at your feet, even if you don't always see it.

10. You Need to Enjoy It

You'll never be this young again. You're never going to get to relive these days, so take them in one at a time. Don't wish for the boring stuff to pass or you'll be thinking that way for the rest of your life. Enjoy the experience and make it your own.
